Learn to Cane a Chair with Martha Bremer
Thursday Afternoons
4 - Weeks, October 7 - 28
1:00pm - 3:00pm
$105 for Members / $110 for Non-members (fee for materials is included)
Bring your worn-out chair to class and learn the nearly lost art of the traditional, seven-step method of chair seat weaving commonly known as "hole-to-hole caning." During the course, you'll have ample time and the instruction you'll need to restore your favorite chair by recaning the seat to its original condition. Whether a family heirloom chair or the one you picked up at the antique store that needs a little brushing up, vintage chairs that need seat work are welcome in this course that's tailored to your specific project. Chairs need to have predrilled holes around the perimeter of seat and be in good condition (not in need of re-gluing or refinishing). Each student will consult with the instructor prior to the start of the course to assess the chair.

Bring to Class:
Chair to be caned
Small bucket (ice cream bucket is ok)
Side cutters or scissors
